  1. The Neurosurgery SIG Meeting Sydney 2013

  2. Agenda • Neurosurgical topics for the MDS meeting in 2014 • Symposium title • Suggested Session Chair • The names of 3 possible speakers • Tentative presentation titles for each speaker • Review of the actions from last year´s Neurosurgical SIG´s meeting • Review of NINDS common data elements for DBS studies (CDISC) • The SIG website • Any other business

  3. Suggested Parallel Session 1 Deep brain lesioning – Back to the future Chair: Marwan Hariz, Andres Lozano Is there still a role for thermo-lesioning in movement disorders? • Robert Gross, Atlanta, Georgia, USA • Alternate Speaker: Marwan Hariz, London, UK Gammaknife thalamotomy for tremor • Jean Regis, Marseille, France • Alternate Speaker: Douglas Kondziolka, New York, USA Transcranial MR-guided focused ultrasound thalamotomy for Essential Tremor • W. Jeff Elias, Charlottesville, Virginia, USA • Alternate Speaker: Andres Lozano, Toronto, Canada

Suggested Parallel Session 2 New tools for understanding the pathophysiology of Parkinson’s Disease • Chair: AnatolKreitzer, FiorellaContarino Optogenetic dissection of basal ganglia circuits • Karl Deisseroth, Stanford, CA, USA • Alternate Speaker: AnatolKreitzer, UCSF, CA, USA Invasive electrochemical assays for use in human neurosurgery • Kendall Lee, Mayo Clinic, MN, USA • Alternate Speaker:Kendall Lee, Mayo Clinic, MN, USA Local field potentials in Parkinson’s disease • FiorellaContarino, University of Amsterdam, Netherlands • Alternate Speaker: Philip Starr, UCSF, CA, USA

  5. Suggested Parallel Session 3 Ethical issues in DBS surgery Chairpersons: Jean Pierre Lin, Björn Schmitz-Luhn Are there age limits for DBS? • Jean Pierre Lin, King’s College Hospital, London, UK • Alternate Speaker: Ludvic Zrinzo, Queen Square, London, UK Law and ethics of deep brain stimulation • Björn Schmitz-Luhn, Cologne, Germany • Alternate Speaker: Christian Katzenmeier, Cologne, Germany Neuroethicalprinciples of deep-brain stimulation • Morten Kringelbach, Oxford, UK • Alternative Speaker: Jens Clausen, Tübingen, Germany

  6. Suggested Teaching Session How do I choose the most suitable DBS implant for my patient? The latest developments in DBS implants • Leo Verhagen, Rush Medical College, Chicago, IL, USA • Alternate Speaker: Jens Volkmann, Würzburg, Germany Matching the implant to the patient • Paul Larson, UCSF, CA, USA • Alternate Speaker: Paul Krack, Grenoble, France Now it’s implanted! Approaches for the first programming session • Elena Moro, Grenoble, France • Alternate Speaker: Lars Timmerman, Cologne, Germany

  7. Follow-up on previous SIG meetings • SIG 2011: The MDS President agreed to having a SIG member on the Congress Scientific Program Committee in time for the Sydney meeting • Phil Starr has been on the committee • SIG 2012: A final decision made to accept the CDISC/NINDS data capture module for adverse events associated with DBS implantation • A standard to be employed in clinical research • Provisional standard released in December 2012 and is now available for initial use from CDISC website

  8. CDISC: • A global, open, multidisciplinary, non-profit organization • Establishes standards to support clinical data collection, exchange, submission and archiving Mission: • To develop and support global, platform-independent data standards in order to improve medical research and related areas of healthcare • CDISC standards are vendor-neutral, platform-independent and freely available via the CDISC website

  9. CDSIC Data Standards for PD • Intended for world-wide implementation • In collaboration with National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) • In consultation with professional associations e.g., MDS • Includes a data collection form for DBS surgery • Demographic data • DBS system and stimulation parameters • Adverse events related to implantation surgery

  10. Complications of DBS surgery for PD • Nature and incidence of complications • Severity and outcome of adverse events • Association of AEs with: • Patient demography • Clinical status • Concomitant medications • Surgical target and procedure • Hardware • Stimulation parameters

  11. Proposal for Pilot Test • A world-wide epidemiological clinical trial to: • Test the utility of the CDISC data standards for complications associated with DBS surgery • Explore the data for associations between various clinical parameters and the incidence of adverse events • Participating sites to enroll all consecutive patients undergoing DBS over a 1 year period • Planned deliverables • Meeting presentations • Publication

  12. Proposal for Pilot Test (cont’d) Next steps: • Identify interested clinical trial sites world-wide • Each site to be responsible for local EC/IRB submission and associated study costs • Seek research funding to support centralized data collection and analysis • eCRF, data management and analysis • Protocol development

  13. SIG Website • New content! • Interactive space for members to discuss patient cases • Updates to the section on future treatments • Any volunteers? • Authors will be recognized on the website • A nice opportunity for residents to show their interest in the field • Please contact me with suggestions for content at per.almqvist@ki.se

  14. MDS in Stockholm 2014
